The Plums Tasted

The plums tasted
sweet to the unlettered desert-tribe girl-
but what manners! To chew into each! She was ungainly,
low-caste, ill mannered and dirty,
but the god took the
fruit she'd been sucking.
Why? She'd knew how to love.
She might not distinquish
splendor from filth
but she'd tasted the nectar of passion.
Might not know any Veda,
but a chariot swept her away-
now she frolics in heaven, esctatically bound
to her god.
The Lord of Fallen Fools, says Mira,
will save anyone
who can practice rapture like that-
I myself in a previous birth
was a cowherding girl
at Gokul.

Save Your Love

You were my woman and I was your man
You were good lookin
You know I was your biggest fan
You tried to teach me things I already knew
When you couldnt reach me
Girl, I think you knew that we were through
Baby, its over
Save your love, save it, save it
Save your love, save it, save it
Save your love, I dont want it (save your love)
Save it for someone else (save it, save it)
Save your love, I dont need it (save your love)
Put it back on the shelf
For somebody else
You said you love me, you may have been right
But hangin above me, girl,
You know that we would fight
You tried to change me and mess up my mind
Now, dont rearrange me
And girl, you know thats why youre left behind
Its over now
Save your love, save it, save it
Save your love, save it, save it
Save your love, I dont want it (save your love)
Save it for someone else (save it, save it)
Save your love, I dont need it (save your love)
Put it back on the shelf
For somebody else
Girl, you know its over
We had some good times
But now theyre gone, so long
Save your love, save it, save it
Save your love, save it, save it
Save your love, I dont want it (save your love)
Save it for someone else (save it, save it)
Save your love, I dont need it (save your love)
Put it back on the shelf
For somebody else
Save your love, I dont want it (save your love)
Save it for someone else (save it, save it)
Save your love, I dont need it (save your love)
Girl, I dont want it, save your love
Save your love, I dont want it (save your love)
Save it for someone else (save it, save it)
Save your love, I dont need it (save your love)
Girl, I dont want it, save your love
Save your love, I dont want it (save your love)
Save it for someone else (save it, save it)
Save your love, I dont need it (save your love)
Girl, I dont want it, save your love

Unbroken

Fallen to pieces (I am undone)
The things you said the (manipulation)
I trusted you like a fool while you made all the rules
So you searched me out
And you took me down
-TO BE UNBROKEN, WHAT WOULD THAT BE
IF WORDS THAT WERE SPOKEN HAD NOT SHATTERED ME
IF I WAS UNBROKEN, I'D NEVER KNOW
THE BEAUTY OF HOPE AND HOW FAR GRACE WILL GO
TO BE UNBROKEN, TO BE UNBROKEN-
The things you found (to use against me)
Have lost their sound (where mercy and truth meet)
I fell to the Father's feet, His words washed all over me
And all the scars you made
Watch them fade away
[refrain]
I've tasted bitter, tasted sweet
Embraced the victory and some defeat
I've tasted bitter, tasted sweet
I've found the beauty in the place they meet
[refrain]

Young Lust

I am just a new boy
Stranger in this town
Where are all the good times?
Who's gonna show this stranger around?
Oh I need a dirty woman
Oh I need a dirty girl
Will some woman in this desert land
Make me feel like a real man?
Take this rock and roll refugee
Oh Babe, set me free
Oh I need a dirty woman
Oh I need a dirty girl
Oh I need a dirty woman
Oh I need a dirty girl

is this just another love song? well it sure sounds that way..
about some girl who dumped me and how i found my way
well this time its different, 'cause im not coming back
im not sure i want another freak attack
am i old enough to have fallen so many times?
fallen for a girl like you before i let my life behind
why cant i just find a perfect girl
the one i know was meant for me and knew that i would live forever
its an all or nothing game like russian roulette
you can pull the trigger and risk your life, or sit back and relax
all of my romances left with a bullet in their head
it leaves a whole story blank.. it leaves a dreamer dead
am i old enough to have fallen so many times?
fallen for a girl like you before i let my life behind
why cant i just find a perfect girl
the one i know was meant for me and knew that i would live forever
im falling.. im falling.. im falling.. im falling.. i'm falling.. i'm falling..
am i old enough to have fallen so many times?
fallen for a girl like you before i let my life behind
why cant i just find a perfect girl
the one i know was meant for me and knew that i would live forever
am i old enough to have fallen so many times?
fallen for a girl like you before i let my life behind
why cant i just find a perfect girl
the one i know was meant for me and knew that i would live forever

Did You Love? And So Many Questions

so did you love her? yes i did
and how did you know you love her? i tasted her
and how did you know you tasted her? my tongue is my witness
and how did she taste like? oh, she was sweet
how sweet? as sweet as sorrow
how did you know? at the end i cried

Who is the girl look at me

Who is the girl look at me? It is my face but it's not me. The girl look at with a sad face. The girl is look at with question. The sweet girl wants to get out.The girl is say that I have not done all a lot. The girl is try get way from me because she does not know who I am now. She wants me look at her and found that really me. The girl who is look at me have short legs and she is try to get way from me. The girl eye look very sad and but the eye have something that I lose long time a ago. The eye have happiness and it made me want to cry. The girl wants me to go with her but I am scared. The girl who is looking at she give me smiles at me and I feel save

Peace Eternal

I HAVE SLEPT IN THE DARK,
YES, I HAVE TASTED IT,
THE FORBIDDEN FRUIT,
SO SWEET IT WAS,
I WAS ENTHRANCED BY IT,
IT WAS SO SERENE,
SO VERY PEACEFULL,
NEVER WAS THERE ANYTHING LIKE IT,
THAT FORBIDDEN THING,
I HAVE DRUNK OF IT'S CUP,
FROM IT'S EVER SO PEACEFULL TRANQUILITY,
SO SWEET IT WAS,
SO SATISFYING IT WAS,
I HAVE TASTED PEACE ONCE,
I NOW WANT IT FOREVER,
THE FOOL CALLS IT DEATH,
THE WISE CALL IT SLEEP,
I CALL IT PEACE ETERNAL

Mira Danced with Ankle Bells

Mira danced with ankle-bells on her feet.

People said Mira was mad; my mother-in-law

said I ruined the family reputation.

Rana sent me a cup of poison and Mira

drank it laughing.

I dedicated my body and soul at the feet of Hari.

I am thirsty for the nectar of the sight of him.

Mira’s lord is Giridhar Nagar; I will

come for refuge to him.

Take Em As They Come

Last night I dreamed he was runnin through the avalanche
Tears streamed your pretty face all burned red
Once your dead its done and not much remains
Down the highway another stranger comes
You gotta take em baby when they come
Little girl put on your red dress
Cause were goin out on the town tonight
And when I hold this switchblade
Lets be sure some fools gonna want to fight
You gotta take em baby as they come
You gotta take em
Take em as they come girl
Take em as they come girl
Take em as they come girl
Take em baby as they come
God save the rider in the black night
Save the man who taught that it was right
To do what they have dreamt of
So we come what we have become
You gotta take em baby when they come
Little girl gone are birthdays
Faded away into the clear blue night
And all the promises we made
Lie shattered and broken in the morning light
You gotta take em baby when they come
You gotta take em
Take em as they come girl
Take em as they come girl
Take em as they come girl
Take em baby as they come
I know your heart is breakin
I can feel it too girl
Though my finger on the trigger is shakin
Theres just one thing you could do girl
Theres winners and losers
All the same from the other side
But we could choose here girl
We could try, couldnt we hon
To take em baby when they come
Take em as they come girl
Take em as they come girl
Take em as they come girl
Take em baby as they come
Take em as they come girl
Take em as they come girl
Take em as they come girl
Take em baby as they come
Take em baby as they come
Take em baby as they come
Take em baby as they come
Take em baby as they come

Girl...

Gorgeous girl, who is it to blame
Anonymous girl, who knows her name
Saddened girl, who makes her cry
Blind girl, who can't love anymore
Lonely girl, who wants to touch her
Speechless girl, who kissed her
Gossip girl, who talks about her
Baby girl, who gave birth to her
Pretty girl, who broke your heart
Promiscious girl, who's promise got broken
Girlie girl, why you're wearing pants
Ugly girl, who can change her
Party girl, who will drink tonight
I don't even want to be an idiot pretty girl....

I wish for this girl

I wish for a girl that her smile makes everything okay

I wish for a girl that laughs at the funny things i say

I wish for a girl who likes sunsets on a beach while we lay

I wish for a girl that will love me until the end of our days

I wish for a girl that will let me treat her in the right way

I wish for a girl that will save me if my heart leads astray

I wish for a girl that will make all my hurt go away

I wish for this girl yet i know i`m not able to get her anyway

Ill just wish for this girl and hope she comes my way

Misty Eyes

I was missing my
Little miss misty eyes
She made my life complete
Id been waiting on
True loves sweet surprise
And it tasted so sweet
Oh it tasted so sweet
I could hear
The sound of the love bell
Told me all it could tell
And the sight of
The blue moon rising
Told me all was well
Told me all was well
I was just driftin
As a wind blown wave
Like a stricken ship
I thought Id never be saved
So far below me
There seemed so much more
Yet a man has to know
What hes looking for
Something unknown
Kept my life turning around
But I couldnt get near to
Putting my feet on the ground
With all that I had
Any man would be glad
But my everything was nothing
So what made me sad
I was missing my
Little miss misty eyes
She made my life complete
I was waiting on
True loves sweet surprise
And it tasted so sweet
It tasted so sweet
Farewell to that same lonely road
Ive seen the last of
That heavy load
No more blues about paying dues
Its time for reaping
All the seeds I sowed

The Sugar-Plum Tree

Have you ever heard of the Sugar-Plum Tree?
'T is a marvel of great renown!
It blooms on the shore of the Lollipop sea
In the garden of Shut-Eye Town;
The fruit that it bears is so wondrously sweet
(As those who have tasted it say)
That good little children have only to eat
Of that fruit to be happy next day.
When you 've got to the tree, you would have a hard time
To capture the fruit which I sing;
The tree is so tall that no person could climb
To the boughs where the sugar-plums swing!
But up in that tree sits a chocolate cat,
And a gingerbread dog prowls below---
And this is the way you contrive to get at
Those sugar-plums tempting you so:
You say but the word to that gingerbread dog
And he barks with such terrible zest
That the chocolate cat is at once all agog,
As her swelling proportions attest.
And the chocolate cat goes cavorting around
From this leafy limb unto that,
And the sugar-plums tumble, of course, to the ground---
Hurrah for that chocolate cat!
There are marshmallows, gumdrops, and peppermint canes,
With stripings of scarlet or gold,
And you carry away of the treasure that rains
As much as your apron can hold!
So come, little child, cuddle closer to me
In your dainty white nightcap and gown,
And I 'll rock you away to that Sugar-Plum Tree
In the garden of Shut-Eye Town.

What A Guy Wants

A guy wants the type of girl
That doesn't mind staying home
A guy wants a girl
He can call his own

He doesn't want a girl
Who will cheat
He doesn't want a girl
Who is cheap

He wants a girl
Who will be his best friend
He wants a girl
Who will love him to the very end

He wants a girl
Who he can depend on
He wants a girl
Who will tell him when he's wrong

A guy wants a girl
Who will never lie
Even if it means
One ends up crying

What a guy wants in a girl
Is passion and trust
But most of all
A guy wants to love and not to lust

She's Got That Vibe

She’s got that vibe
that all our tribe
puts under raps,
and I, too, am smitten
because she’s forbidden,
like apples, perhaps,
that, shared in the garden
caused Adam to harden,
when Eve said to him, “Try it! ”
Out of bounds tasted sweeter
to Adam, whose peter
propelled him to buy it.
It seemed so dimwitted
to take what’s permitted,
he left that for fools,
which we’re not in our tribe,
when we let her prescribe
what is wrong, breaking rules.

The BBC reports today:

A Chicago jury has acquitted US singer R Kelly of all 14 charges of child pornography against him. He was found not guilty of making an explicit sex video that prosecutors had said showed him having sex with a girl as young as 13. Both Mr Kelly and the alleged victim, now 23, denied they were the people shown on the tape, which the jury saw. If found guilty, he had faced up to 15 years in prison. His hits include She's Got That Vibe and I Believe I Can Fly. The Grammy award-winning singer,41, was arrested in 2002 after the video was leaked to the Chicago Sun-Times newspaper. The tape,26-minutes long, showed a man having sex with an underage girl.

The Little Girl I Once Knew

We met when she was younger
And I had no eyes for her.
A few years went by and I saw her,
Now I'm gonna try for her.
(Look out, baby.)
(chorus)
She's not the little girl I once knew
She's not the little girl I once
She's not the little girl I once
She's not the little girl I once knew.
How could I ever have known that
She'd be what she is today.
An' look at how her boy friend calls her.
I'll be movin' in one day.
(split man)
(chorus)
(Bow, bow, bow) Laa-do-day,
(Bow, bow, bow) Laa-do-day,
(Bow, bow, bow) Laa-do-day,
(Bow, bow, bow),
(chorus)
She's not the little girl I once knew.
She's not the little girl I once,
She's not the little girl I once knew.
She's not the little girl I once,
She's not the little girl I once knew.
She's not the little girl I once,
She's not. . .
